Chuletas de Cerdo a la Criolla (Pork Chops in Creole Sauce) Recipe

Name: Chuletas de Cerdo a la Criolla (Pork Chops in Creole Sauce)
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 88 min
Total time: 23 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 4 Pork Chops; 2 tablespoons Vegetable Oil; 3 Cloves Crushed Garlic; Melted Mustard; 1 tablespoon Ground Cumin; 3 diced Tomato; 2 sliced Onions; 1/4 cup Cilantro; To taste Salt; To taste Black Pepper

Pork chops get a good long soak in a mustard, garlic, and cumin marinade before a quick sear. You'll build a Creole-style sauce right in the same pan with onions and tomatoes, letting the chops simmer in it until they're fork-tender. The marinade ensures the pork is deeply seasoned, and the whole dish comes together with less than half an hour of active cooking. Finish with a handful of fresh cilantro to cut through the savory sauce.
